Microscopes The telescope microscope was first discovered in 1608. A Dutch citizen named Hans Lippershey who came from the city of Middelburg and works as a lens maker discovered this tool by accident. Then the knowledge of science related to astronomical knowledge was introduced by Galileo in 1609.
At that time Galileo observed various objects or objects in space using two refractive lenses and arranged in such a way that they formed a kind of binoculars. This tool is then more widely known by the name of stage binoculars.
After that the invention and development of the telescope microscope continued to grow. Because some time later a scientist named Sir Isaac Newton also found a tool whose use was also to see objects in the sky.
However, his findings are more perfect because the mirror used is able to distinguish or separate an object that is less clear. Then in 1781 another scientist named Willian Herschel succeeded in detecting the existence of the planet Uranus using a telescope that was about 12.91 meters high.
The development of history The telescope microscope continued to develop when another astronomer named Karl Goethe Jansky succeeded in discovering the existence of a radio wave of galaxies and stars that were very far from the earth.
Furthermore, in 1957 in England, precisely on the banks of the Jodelle river, a pair of binoculars were made permanently. This is the first telescope in the world that can be used by the general public in the world.
Types of Telescope Microscopes
According to experts, telescope microscopes are divided into three types, namely:
Refractive binoculars
In this type of telescope microscope there are several lenses. The refractive binocular lenses are still divided into several types.
Binoculars are used to see objects in space and use two convex lenses.
Earth binoculars whose function is to observe objects on land or sea that are very far away so they can be seen clearly and up close.
Stage binoculars. This telescope microscope, which is also known as the Galileo binoculars, has a very distinctive feature, namely its short size and the number of lenses that are also two, namely convex and concave.
prism binoculars. The point is to observe objects from a distance but the image is not reversed. So keep it like the original thing.
The last binoculars of this type of refraction are called periscope binoculars.
Reflecting binoculars
This type of telescope microscope has three mirrors in it. Namely two concave and flat mirrors whose function is to reflect and one convex lens that functions as the eyepiece or objective of the concave mirror.
In general, this reflective mirror is more widely used for taking pictures or taking pictures. So it is very rarely used to be used as binoculars for direct observation.
Radio
telescope The last telescope microscope is often also called a radar telescope. Because its function is as a radar. That is to detect an object or object using radio waves or signals.
